Demon two Resurrected gets DLSS support, but not everything is fluid

Apparently it can teach an older dog new tricks, while Demon 2: Resurrected now supports DLSS on computers with compatible Nvidia graphics cards.

Deep Learning Super Sampling arrives with the new patch two.3 of the game, as with certain small visual and audio adjustments. For the uninitiated, DLSS employs high-end Nvidia GPU Tensor Core AI processors to advance the image quality of a game without exactly the same frame rate performance you'd find if you were running the game in high native resolution.

This, naturally, is coupled with the already improved visuals from Demon 2: Resurrected, which have taken the traditional twenty-year-old game and updated it for new computers and game consoles.

But the DLSS implementation still requires some work, from the looks of it. Players report that a game blur was introduced when applying the DLSS option, an unwanted side effect. This can possibly be corrected relatively quickly, as Demon 2: Resurrected appears to employ an older version of DLSS technology than is currently available.

An odd choice for DLSS?

Diablo 2: Resurrected looks like a rare game to overcome the rigors of DLSS processing. After all, the game is based on a 2D original from twenty years ago, and even its new version requires only the most modest system requirements. An Intel Core two Duo processor or AMD Athlon sixty-four X2 5600+, six GB of RAM, twenty-five GB of storage space and an Nvidia GeForce GTX two hundred and sixty or ATI Radeon HD four thousand eight hundred and seventy or better are all that accurate for a reasonable gaming experience.

But as we strive for gradually higher resolutions, and 8K is the new high target for frame rates of sixty fps, even games like Demon may find it somewhat helpful.

Diablo 2: Resurrected is a thoughtful throwback to a much-loved title. In our four-star review of Demon 2: Resurrected, we called it "a perfect springboard, fueled by longing for Demon XNUMX's short release date, and a huge history lesson in a game that has become the blueprint for of many traditional ones that followed him.
